There is no guarantee that the PCNetState is allocated such that
csr[8] is allocated on an 8-byte boundary.  Since not all hosts are
capable of unaligned fetches the 16-bit elements need to be fetched
individually to avoid a potential fault.  Closes issue #2143

The way to mark that a commit fixes an issue is to have:

Resolves: https://gitlab.com/qemu-project/qemu/-/issues/2143

just above the Signed-off-by: line.

(The whole function feels kind of clunky, eg I have
a feeling you could index directly into the csr[]
arrays rather than constructing the ladr[] byte array,
but this is the simple fix for the problem at hand.)

thanks
